The Golden State Warriors host the Toronto Raptors tonight with superstar Steph Curry returning to action for this perennial-contender-turned-lottery team.
Our man on the scene, Poor Man’s Commish, has been live tweeting about the situation all day and offered this tidbit about Curry’s expected minutes tonight: somewhere between 24 and 28 minutes, which is fairly normal for someone returning from a severe injury.
I'm not happy about this thought because he's one of my favorite players, but if Looney's career is really looking in jeopardy...perhaps they should have put him in the deal instead of Spellman.
If we can smack Denver with 10-day guys and hold up against Toronto the next game with no Dray and no Klay...win or lose this one, Dubs bout to be baaaaaaack!
That WAAAARIORS crowd chant at the start of the fourth came from the heart, unprompted. The game was very much in doubt, but the team is hustling hard, playing for each other and with a bit of Steph flair and finds the game is fun again.

Hey folks, if you haven’t subscribed yet please consider it. It’s a miracle the way the creators of LGW have made this space for us.
Curry and Poole should have staggered minutes. And never see the court at the same time!
Eric “Wrecking Ball” Paschall was my low key hero this game- young un with max poise
Top players:
1: Paschall
2: Lee
3: Curry, Chriss
HM: Wiggins
Even just getting Dray back makes that one winnable.

Lee messed up at the end but he kept us in the game earlier. Live and learn
Imagine if that was Klay instead of Dlee
That last 30 seconds of Damion Lee might be the worst individual 30 seconds of basketball I've ever seen by any player at any level
You ever notice how when a bad team does something bad at the end of a game, the announcers call it a "microcosm of the season"
Paschall putting his arm around D Lee consoling him for the missed FTs and turnover. Yeah, he muffed it up, but they'll learn from this.
holy moly lee lmao
Aww! Lee.
I look forward to when DLee is at the end of the bench where he belongs next year.
Our G-Leaguers and rookies seem to be unable to handle the pressure in late-game situations.

Haha the first time in a LONG time that the Dubs crowd could cheer MVP for Steph without some petty complainers making them feel guilty
COME ON WARRIORS!!
Ugh ... Lee
Merry Stephmas everyone!
We got this - let's go
Waaarrrriooorrs!
I can’t believe the crowd buzz!!
This really fun
Lets GO!
Sweet Chriss move to get possession
Wow steph wow
Poole is terrible
My wishlist this off-season is a starting center and a quality 3 and D wing off the bench.
All these wide open 3 bricks are grating...
Wiggins is going to need to work on his 3 point shooting in the offseason
Great decision-making leading to that Chriss layup
There are alot of open 3’s that are bricked! And put in Mulder rest Dlee
lol imma need a few minutes on the post game thread tonight y'all
wiggs had bricked that wide open 3 that would have tied the game, and it all kinda went to shit after that
Hahahha anybody check that lady behind Nick Nurse chug her wine right quick?
This game is lit!

Lots of time left, we got this!
When do they bring steph back??
3 straight turnovers... still only down 4?
Ugh! Youngsters are not used to this kind of energy and over hyped They need to settle down
4th quarter collapse to preserve the tank!
A couple of pretty bad calls gifting Raptors fouls for their players falling over
Damn Lee, you idiot
Does Reggie Miller know Bender because he's been coaching him all game lol
These turnovers ...
Sabrina called it on SC30 min
Mr. Poole needs to relax a little
Poole lookin like he's a little overwhelmed to be playing crunch time minutes next to Steph
